As the start of school is approaching, the boys from each family are also concerned. Some make up their homework at home, and some go from house to house to copy their homework. Chen Wei and Zhang Xun have no troubles in this regard. They overcompleted their homework in half a month. Father Chen set up a table at his home the day before, just to make a good fortune for nothing else, hoping that the eldest son would get some first exams, Grandpa Zhang and Father Chen were blushing and thick necked. The life is fulfilling, the work in the field is not interrupted, and there are multiple livelihoods at home. Mr. Zhang expressed his personal reflections through the strength of wine: "For the sake of the children, we can't give up the picks, and we have to continue to work hard!"

What the elders said was nice, but when the school started, the two children were still the same when they left their home. Except for the hair cut into square inches at Chen Wei's strong request, the schoolbag was still an old grass-green schoolbag, and the pencil was still thrown at the bottom of the bag. Wei smiled wryly that it turned out that the adults only asked for spiritual needs, and did not provide material assistance. They were still in the fourth row. Chen Wei scanned the students who were not in good spirits, and it seemed that the jet lag had not been adjusted.

As soon as the bell rang, everyone sat upright. The rebellious period hadn't come yet. What the teacher said was the imperial decree, and a sense of awe naturally emerged. As Chen Wei expected, their class had a new teacher in the second semester of the third grade. 40 Around the age, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of the nose, he looks like an intellectual. This teacher is not as gentle as he looks on the surface. In his previous life, Chen Wei was often mentioned on the podium or was trained or punished. The gentle appearance is quite Foolishly, looking at the beaming classmates, you guys will suffer after Chen Wei held back his mouth, he was stunned and reflected, lowering his head and chuckling, there is really too much resentment, how could he forget that he is no longer the old naughty boy.

"Wei Zi, Wei Zi, the teacher called you." Teacher Fan called Chen Wei's name twice, but he was immersed in his thoughts and didn't hear it.

Chen Wei hurriedly got up and went to the podium to take the books. Teacher Fan asked, "Do you want to change seats?"

The direction she pointed was the territory of a good student, Chen Wei shook his head: "Thank you teacher, I'm still used to the original seat." This is the honor of being the first in the exam, but he wants to take Xunzi to make steady progress together.

The teacher didn't force it either: "Okay, this semester depends on your performance."

It’s not long since I returned to school. After I handed in my summer homework and loaded up the new books, the teacher gave orders, and the students ran home again. Chen Wei and Xunzi went straight there, and first went to the vegetable market. For the storefront, Chen Wei is very confident about this piece of land. In the future, there will be many high-rise buildings in the county town, and these will have room for appreciation. Unfortunately, the biggest problem is that he has no money in his pocket. Otherwise, he wants to buy this piece of land. There is no other way. Even if he did it again, the money he earned would not fall into his pocket. He has this self-knowledge that he has parents, and these two have a collective name called guardians whether they are open or covert. In this era, gangsters can set up stalls and make a fortune, so what's wrong with his family?Besides, putting money in his pocket is only for peace of mind. This is not what he should do. If there are no workers in his family, don’t expect the unit to allocate housing. He didn't want to go home and farm because he missed the university.

Chen Wei ran to the stall and took two catties of pork head meat: "Master, Dad, I'm going to ask someone about it."

Father Chen hugged the bag tightly and didn't let go, staring like a bull's eye and shouted: "You little brat, get out of here, don't worry, it's all money."

"Oh, I'm so angry, why are you only looking at the small profits in front of you?" Chen Wei pulled the two of them together, and said in a low voice, "It's not like our stall is only open for a day or two. We have to look for the relationship, how can we fix it without someone from the backstage to make trouble?"

Father Chen let go: "Then who are you looking for?" He has been to a large market, but compared to this place, it is a bit messy. Two fists are hard to beat with four hands.

Chen Wei scratched his head with his hand, and set off with Xunzi in his hand. The two ran around the market twice before finding someone in a small, unremarkable house. There were only two tables in the room, and a radio on the table. There was a hard bed next to it, and the conditions were quite difficult. Chen Wei didn't even need to look carefully, and he couldn't see anything special at a glance. : "This injury is so neat, has it been delivered to your door?"

"Uncle, it's business." Chen Wei nodded his head solemnly, explaining his intentions: "Aren't you in charge of this land? Can you give me some gossip when the land will go up? I'll think about it. Do you have enough time to save money at home, if time does not allow, give up and don’t want to.”

After hearing this, Hu Nan rested his forehead in a pensive state. In fact, he was afraid that he could not help laughing, so he made the two little guys lose face. I fully understand, who can find out what changes every day.”

"There is no wind?"

Hu Nan shook his head, and Xunzi understood what Chen Wei meant, and suggested, "Otherwise, who cares about this, tell me, I'll come to inquire."

Hu Nan couldn't help but bald a few times on his forehead: "The policy from above has not come down, what can you find out?" Let go of Xunzi's head, tapped his fingertips on the table, lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "You It is of course best to have the ability to start with a whole piece of land. After all, the county will definitely reform and innovate. In the long run, it will be painful."

"What do you mean?" Xunzi asked with blank eyes.

"Oh," Hu Nan also felt that this word was thrown too early, and changed it to a simple and easy-to-understand saying: "Anyway, you have no money, so what's the use of thinking so much?" He glanced at the two little guys and smiled. : "I can't help you with this matter, but I can help you think of a way to convince the elders in your family if you have the ability in the future," folded your hands on the table and leaned forward: "As long as you can catch the other party's weakness, you can do it." There is nothing that cannot be done, remember to order some wine next time."

Xunzi pursed her lips, and said in disgust: "I, Uncle Chen, can make a handsome daughter-in-law with six buckles of potatoes. Don't blame me for not reminding your daughter-in-law that she will run away if you drink too much wine." With short hair, he twisted his neck: "Weizi, let's go."

Hu Nan gritted his teeth: "Stinky man, I don't know if I'm drunk." Pulling his bald head back again, Xunzi struggled: "Uncle, my brow (forehead) is big enough, Knead it a few more times, and it will be bright."

"Call me brother!"

Xunzi, who was freed, asked suspiciously: "Why?"

Hu Nan shook his head and said, "You look young."

Xunzi stared straight for a moment, then pushed his head forward: "Uncle, you can put me down a few more times, and I will be in a good mood, otherwise I will feel a little dizzy after hearing what you say."

……

Father Chen has had a really good life since he took over the stall. The son prepares the ingredients and leaves other matters to the old lady and mother Chen. The two get up early every day and work in the field until nine or ten o'clock, and go home for a while. After tidying up, just dig into it. If you are tired, it’s delicious. The wife’s eyes have changed, and she has regained the feeling of being the master of the house. As soon as she stretched her legs, she waited for the daughter-in-law to bring the food to the table.

Mr. Chen’s recent troubles are a bit big, and others are also aware of them. They sell meat at the stalls, collect eggs in the village, and the Yang family has to send two boards of tofu every other day. Boss Chen made a lot of money in a muffled voice, and Sanya's uneasy heart was fueled by these rumors. The business of earning money was not her share, and the second brother Chen was dead-headed and refused to listen to persuasion, so he couldn't find a The person who had a good time with her, the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he was. He put a layer of frost on his face, wore a pair of the most popular trousers, and walked around the corner of the village with a tangy smell of powder, walking as lightly as he could. She walked towards Mrs. Chen like a fish. Since Chen Wei got his head hurt last time, she hasn't stepped through this door for a while.

Chen's mother turned out last year's sweaters and trousers at home, intending to upend the ridges (in vernacular: dismantle and re-weave). The eldest son has grown half a tie, and the younger son has become much stronger. It was difficult to make balls after washing, drying and drying. Except for the little ones who were not at home, no one helped them. He lifted Chen Qing's two small arms to shoulder level, and hung the balls of wool on them: "Help mom, What do you want mom to buy for you."

The little guy stuck out his stomach: "One penny," he kicked his legs and changed his words again: "One penny." One penny, one penny, the little guy who piled up five or six balls is very clever, regardless of his young age understand.

Chen's mother nodded and did not give a positive answer. She went around the little guy and twisted his waist to help. Chen's mother smiled and looked at her son's stupid look with eyes closed. Gritting her teeth, the men in the family were compared, and the daughter-in-law did not escape the comparison. She looked down on Chen Wei and had something to do with this mother. Both of them were beautiful and fair. It’s not even that white. For those who have given birth to children, she is still so slender, but she has a round waist, a big butt, and more spots on her face. The only advantage is the son at home. Chen Wei has become better. In the end, there was no comparability, no matter how bright I dressed up, in the eyes of others, I couldn't compare with the rusticity of the other party.

Sanya walked into the courtyard with her hair down: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing at home?" She looked around and praised, "My sister-in-law's house is small, and you can clean it up really neatly."

Chen's mother has long been used to her Gelu (in the vernacular: looking for trouble for nothing), and she was happy to be dumb. She patted the staring young son and untied the ball of wool: "Go crazy!"

Chen Qing still remembered his brother's injury. When he was free, he ran to the chicken rack, sat by the door and pouted to watch the chicken. Chen's mother pulled the little guy up dumbfounded: "Let's go play, Mom is at home."

Sanya's face was flushed with embarrassment, and when Chen Ma coaxed Chen Qing not to pay attention, did she cast her eyes straight into the back room, as long as she found that secret recipe, and still look at others in a low voice?Chen's mother turned her head and pretended not to see the sneaky gaze: "Where are our parents? They are all fine. I have something to do at home these days and I haven't taken the time to check it out."

"It's all good, it's all good," she didn't have the time to talk about these irrelevant topics: "Sister-in-law, I haven't been to your house for a long time, let me see how the outhouse has changed." After speaking, she raised her head. Buttocks walked into the house, but Chen's mother didn't stop her, she looked around every corner, but she didn't find anything that looked like a secret recipe. After thinking about it, her eyes lit up and she said it was Chen Wei's tinkering. It was in his room, and before she put her hand on the door, Chen's mother said: "Sanya, don't look at Serena's room, that kid is like your big brother, he has a very weird temper, and he won't let his things go." If someone touches it, you have to be eye-catching if you see it." The family had long guarded against her coming out, and the brine was sealed tightly when it was not in use, and it was moved by Chen's father to their east room and pressed under the cabinet. Blocking the curtain, the couple's old man had to think about it when he went in. She didn't believe that the second sister-in-law was so thick-skinned, but instead of going to the east room and going to the west room instead, Chen Ma had no choice but to speak.

Sanya withdrew her hand awkwardly, sat back in the courtyard and began to cry poorly again: "Sister-in-law, what do you think our Xiaoyang is doing, thinking that the tuition fees for the Chinese New Year have not been paid, my heart is burning, Xiaoyang studies so well It's about to end, alas," Seeing that Chen Ma didn't talk to her, she brought the conversation to the surface: "Brother and sister-in-law can earn a lot of money in a day, right?"

Chen's mother showed helplessness: "The little money at home is in the hands of your eldest brother. He is the shopkeeper of the family. I usually don't know if I take a look at it." Changed the subject: "San Ya eat here at noon, call parents and second child over later."

Sanya seemed reluctant, and said coyly: "That's fine."

When Father Chen entered the courtyard, he saw Sanya first: "Are you here?" He turned his head and said to his wife, "Find me a pair of socks."

"Why did you come back by yourself, didn't you buy any meat?" Mother Chen asked as soon as the couple entered the house, looking for socks was just an excuse, what kind of socks do people who go to the field all day wear, and they are barefoot all year round. save money.

"Don't mention it, let's talk about it when I come back. Give me two bucks, and I'll go to see Mr. Zhang. On the way back, I said that my legs hurt a little. I opened my trouser legs to see that my legs were swollen. I didn't even go to see the doctor. I thought about it." I have to recite some money when I come back.” The two families had earned some money, and they didn’t dare to use it indiscriminately, for fear of emergency, but the actual life was tight, and Mr. Zhang didn’t want to spend that money. Feeling distressed, Dad Chen couldn't see it and thought about digging it out first and then talking about it later.

Chen Ma turned around and went to get the money: "Okay, come back at noon and call the parents and the second child over for dinner, and then call Uncle Zhang's family, so that the old lady won't get angry."

"Why is she here?" Father Chen pointed to Sanya in the yard and asked.

"Who knows, it's just about the left and right, what can I do if I come to eat a little bit?"
